Migrating your Virtual Machine to Google Compute Engine

In this 10 minute video, Brian Stark, a product manager for Google Compute Engine, discusses how to move your virtual machine into the cloud. The reasons form migrating to Google's Cloud Platform are discussed along with a framework for cloud migrations. Then the mechanics of workload assessment and migration are covered. A number of technology partners, who can assist in these migrations, are introduced, along guidelines of which problems they solve.

There a number of major decision points in the journey to the cloud that can have a substantial impact on your success. In-depth, granular analytics are the only way you can make those decisions with ease and confidence. Capturing the right insights will ensure you know which cloud configuration is optimal for your workload, and how you should go about migrating your infrastructure to the cloud.

In this webinar, you’ll learn:
The top questions to consider when assessing your cloud options and planning for migration
How to take a strategic, data-driven approach to moving to the cloud
Which analytics are essential to choosing the right cloud configuration for your infrastructure
How to successfully plan your cloud migration

Different applications and workloads require different storage solutions. Google Cloud Platform offers a full suite of solutions to meet your needs, from a hobbyist in a garage to a Fortune 500 company. This session will help you understand which solutions fit your scenarios, be they mobile applications, hosting commercial software, data pipelines, or storing backups.

Moving to the cloud can be daunting; often organizations struggle understanding where to begin and the steps required to realize a migration. In this one hour webinar, Google's migration architect, Peter-Mark Verwoerd will walk through a framework on how to assess cloud migration. Though the course of this presentation, you will also become familiarized with the services offered by Google Cloud Platform.

If you want to analyze terabytes of data in seconds, Google BigQuery might be the simplest and fastest tool to do so. If you are wondering "What is BigQuery?" and "Why should I care?", this video has the answers.

Learn the fundamentals of Google Compute Engine in less than five minutes. Brian will explain the key services and how they work together to run your applications on Google's infrastructure. Automation and APIs are next, wrapping up with pointers to further details.

Google BigQuery is an analytics service offered in the cloud as a part of Google Cloud Platform portfolio. In this webinar we will explore how customers are using BigQuery to jumpstart their BigData Analytics initiatives. We'll also provide details on how you can get started with BigQuery.

The Infrastructure as a Service space is rapidly expanding, but is it evolving to meet your needs? Google Compute Engine was designed to help users build, scale, and analyze quickly on the same infrastructure that powers the most advanced and innovative technology in the world. Learn what happens when the cloud gets a little more Googley.

Too much data, complexity, and money, not enough time. Storage is a dynamic industry with unique, escalating challenges. There are many products and technologies available to meet your storage objectives. Why choose Google’s Cloud Platform? Learn five reasons Google Cloud Storage is becoming the new ‘gold standard’ in cloud storage.

The Google Cloud Platform provides a comprehensive strategy for cloud computing -- whether you need infrastructure resources, develop applications or store your data. But don't take it from us -- hear how other IT professionals like yourself chose Google Cloud Platform for their needs and why.

The cloud is now worth billions of dollars and home to increasing amounts of IT infrastructure. Where does the story go with big data? With innovations like BigQuery and cloud BI, it’s clear we’re on the horizon where some of the most exciting technologies meet. Join this live roundtable with big data and cloud industry experts as they discuss the following:

-Why BigData? Why now?
-What are the benefits of cloud BI and are they worth the switch?
-What kind of resources do you need to make the cloud as successful as possible for big data?
- What are the real challenges involved in big data in the cloud?
- How can you start to leverage the cloud for big data projects?
- Discussion of any success stories or customers who have done this today.

"Rapidly crunching terabytes of big data requires complex technology and tremendous IT investment. Organizations of all sizes are looking for alternatives to the existing world of on-premise database technology and looking to the cloud and “big data” technologies to deal with the explosion of data types and volumes available in their organizations.

Over the years, Google has been an innovator in processing and analyzing massive amounts of information. Google has been responsible for inventing and developing many of the technologies that have been adopted by the IT industry to solve “big data” and computationally intensive problems. Now Google is exposing these technologies progressively through Google Cloud Platform offerings and many customers are already taking advntage of access to these technologies and innovations.

Google’s Big Data and Cloud Platform Experts Vishwas Agashe and James Chittenden will both examine in depth, what it takes to succeed in deriving business value out of Big Data. We'll dive into Google's Big Data stack (BigQuery, Compute Engine + Hadoop, Building Big Data Pipelines, etc) as well as explore best practices when harnessing Google’s massive infrastructure in supporting those efforts.
